OpenAI has acquired Roi, an AI-based finance app.The terms of the deal have not been disclosed, but the acquisition reinforces OpenAI's push into financial technology.
Founded back in 2022 in New York, Roi set out to solve the problem of personalisation in finance with the help of artificial intelligence. Chief executive Sujith Vishwajith confirmed the acquisition, which will bring the startup's expertise to OpenAI. The company has raised $3.6 million in early-stage funding from investors like Balaji Srinivasan, Spark Capital, Gradient Ventures, and Spacecadet Ventures.
The app will shut down its services for customers on October 15. Its shutdown is an indicator of change because the team will become part of the larger mission of OpenAI's scalable AI systems. This occurrence comes after recent OpenAI acquisitions such as Context.ai, Crossing Minds, and Alex.
The Roi deal follows the acquisition last month of Statsig by OpenAI in an all-stock deal worth approximately $1.1 billion. Statsig creates tools that help software developers experiment by controlling new features. It had already raised 100 million earlier this year. These purchases indicate that OpenAI is interested in infrastructure and AI applications.
The valuation of OpenAI has now reached $ 500 billion, following the sale of 6.6 billion shares by employees, as reported by Reuters. The company also noted that it recorded revenue of $4.3 billion in the first half of 2025, representing a 16% increase in total revenue from 2024.
It has expanded its recurring yearly revenues to $ 13 billion and is projected to surpass $20 billion in 2025. These milestones in funding demonstrate the company's ability to rapidly develop new products, with acquisitions such as Roi broadening its scope into new verticals.

Besides acquisitions, OpenAI has also furthered collaboration with large technology companies. It will deploy AI data centers of at least 10 gigawatts in a $100 billion agreement with NVIDIA. These facilities will utilize millions of GPUs for the next generation of AI models at OpenAI.
The NVIDIA collaboration is a sign that OpenAI requires high-performance computing infrastructures to support its massive growth. These initiatives, in addition to the strategic acquisitions, also reflect a broader effort to diversify the use of AI and enhance technical capabilities.
